Visual Header feature - icons

Is there a way to change the icons in the new feature for the visual headers? 

 

If the visual header option is not in use (prior to the July release) then the icons show as

 ActiveVisualheader.GIF

 

  If the feature is turned on then the icons in the Visual Header change to 

 

NoVisualheader.GIF

 

The icons are cleaner in the first image.

That's the new feature of the July release 2018. Please refer to :https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-july-2018-feature-summary/#reporting
>>>>>>>>>Depending on your report’s layout, you may notice some shifts after upgrading reports to the new header, especially with background images.
You visual has background ,so you may not feel adapt to it.
may be you can close it  in File->Options and settings ->Options ->Reporting settings ->Visual options

I understand this is due to the new feature. What I was reporting is the new icons are not as presentable as the icons with the feature (Visual headers) turned off. 

 

I was hoping that microsoft would review the icons. I love the feature otherwise.

Agree. Love the options and ability to use the space better that the modern visual header provides but icons (mainly size of the icons) is what I think is a bit off. Maybe an option to control the size of the icons and also maybe an option to choose from different themes of icons would be great (or at least the old and new icons).
